An unipolar organic injection laser in which electrically-stimulated intraband transitions result in lasing. An active region includes at least one organic injector layer and at least one organic emitter layer. Each organic emitter layer has a first energy level and a second energy level on a same side of an energy gap defined by a conduction band and a valance band. Charge carriers are injected through the organic injector layer into the first energy level of the organic emitter layer when a voltage is applied across active region. The difference in energy between the first and second energy levels produces radiative emissions when charge carriers transition from the first energy level to the second energy level. Population inversion is maintained between the first and second energy levels, producing stimulated emission and lasing.

A method of fabricating an organic optoelectronic device having a bulk heterojunction comprises the steps of: depositing a first layer over a first electrode by organic vapor phase deposition, wherein the first layer comprises a first organic small molecule material; depositing a second layer on the first layer such that the second layer is in physical contact with the first layer, wherein the interface of the second layer on the first layer forms a bulk heterojunction; and depositing a second electrode over the second layer to form the optoelectronic device. In another embodiment, a first layer having protrusions is deposited over the first electrode, wherein the first layer comprises a first organic small molecule material. For example, when the first layer is an electron donor layer, the first electrode is an anode, the second layer is an electron acceptor layer, and the second electrode is a cathode. As a further example, when the first layer is an electron acceptor layer, the first electrode is a cathode, the second layer is an electron donor layer, and the second electrode is an anode.
